Manic Mentality

Sitting motionless I feel like I'm emotionless Numb in my body From heartache and mental stress No longer can this strain In my brain be compressed Nor the cries from the depths Of my mind be silenced I'm tired of the pain I'm looking for the cure It's driving me insane I can't take anymore Memory sliced in half From cuts so deep, Peace on vacation Voices still speak My mind reveals secrets That my heart can't keep Emotion breaks down My spirit just screams I'm tired of the pain I'm looking for the cure It's driving me insane I can't take anymore Covered by the darkness Comforted by the cold Of course nobody cares No helping hand to hold Pain, my perverse pleasure Hurt, my comfort zone Living on an island Always alone I'm tired of the pain I'm looking for the cure It's driving me insane I can't take anymore Surrounded by fake family No real place to call home Bloodthirsty beasts Heartless with no soul Life is so dim Lights so low Optimistic thoughts Of when the the curtains close I'm tired of the pain I'm looking for the cure It's driving me insane I can't take anymore Nothing inside me Nothing to lose Whatever my next decision Is all mine to choose Adrenaline high Common sense on snooze Exhausted all my options Not much left to do I'm tired of the pain I'm looking for the cure It's driving me insane I can't take anymore
